I'm a bit worried about my husband. He had a viral fever, cough, and weakness. Thankfully, his fever's gone, and his weakness has improved, but he still has this cough. When he coughs, he struggles with shortness of breath, and even when he tries to take deep breaths, it triggers his cough. He's currently on Gudcef 200 and Windose tablets, as prescribed by the doctor. Any advice on how we should handle this situation?

View allFor a couple of weeks now, I've been having trouble taking deep breaths and can't seem to yawn properly. It's making me feel a bit dizzy. Ive seen some general doctors, and they said it might be because of a cold, but I'm not convinced. Could there be something more serious, like an issue with my heart or lungs? Any chance there might be a blockage or something?
Difficulty taking deep breaths, incomplete yawning, and associated dizziness can sometimes result from respiratory conditions like a cold or anxiety, but it's essential to rule out more serious issues involving the heart or lungs. Consulting a pulmonologist and a cardiologist for a comprehensive evaluation would be prudent. Recommended diagnostic tests include pulmonary function tests (PFTs) to assess lung function, a chest X-ray or CT scan to visualize lung structures, and an echocardiogram and electrocardiogram (ECG) to evaluate heart function. Keeping a symptom diary and discussing these details with your healthcare provider will aid in diagnosis.

I'm really worried about my friend. His oxygen level is around 90 when he's on 2L of support, but it drops to 55 when he tries to sit or do anything active. I know he had corona, and his CT score was 1424 on May 7, 2021. They've given him remdesivir, and he seems to be recovering from the virus, but he's having trouble breathing when the oxygen support is removed. It's been a month since he tested positive for COVID, yet he still needs oxygen. He recently had another CT scan on May 28, and the score is up to 2124. Can you help me understand what's going on with him? Why is he still facing these breathing issues? He's still in the hospital, and we're just really concerned.
his CT score has increased that means his infection is increased. that infection needs to be reduced then only he can be without oxygen support

I'm a 33-year-old guy and I've been dealing with a cough for the past 20 days. Along with the cough, I'm noticing yellow-light green mucus. I've been using whey protein for about a month since I started working out at the gym, and I'm wondering if it might be the reason for my issues. I stopped using it three days ago, but the cough hasn't gone away. I also used to eat raw spinach and broccoli but I've quit those too. My cough tends to worsen when I'm lying down to sleep, and it feels like my chest really fills up with mucus, especially early in the morning. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
Tab azithromycin 500mg,orally,once daily for 3 days is advised to the patient.Rest continue all.
